The GY-HD110 is operable with AC power supply or battery
pack.
Use the supplied AC adapter as the AC power supply.
1.
After making sure that the power switches of the GY-
HD110 and of the AC adapter are set to OFF, connect the
DC cable from the AC adapter to the DC INPUT connec-
tor of the GY-HD110 as shown in the illustration.
2.
Press the POWER switch of the GY-HD110 to ON. Power
is supplied to the VTR section and the camera.
CAUTION
• When using the DC cable make sure to connect the end
of the cable with the ferrite core to the AC adapter.
• Do not remove or connect the DC cable while recording is
being performed.
• Do not use any power source with large fluctuations in the
power source voltage, power sources generating noise,
such as ripples or power sources with lower voltage.
Attach the supplied core filter (gray) as shown in the diagram
on the right to reduce unwanted electromagnetic emission.
Attach the core filter as shown in the diagram on the left to
this unit as near as possible.

Charging the Built-in Battery

The built-in, rechargeable backup battery retains the date and
time and the time code data.
The built-in battery is constantly being charge whenever the
GY-HD110 is connected to a power supply, but it gradually
discharges while the GY-HD110 is disconnected from a power
supply. The battery will be fully discharged when the GY-
HD110 is not used for about three months, in which case the
set date and time and time code data are reset.
In this case, recharge the built-in battery and then set the
date and time and time code data again.
However, it is possible to use the GY-HD110 even if the built-
in battery is discharged but the date and time and time code
data cannot be recorded.
How to charge
1.
Connect the provided AC adapter to the GY-HD110 and
an AC outlet or mount a charged battery on the GY-
HD110.
2.
Set the POWER switch on the GY-HD110 to "ON" or
"OFF" (charging takes places with the POWER switch set
to either of the positions.)
3.
Leave the equipment in this condition for about 4 hours.
• The built-in battery will remain charged for about 3
months after being charged for about 4 hours.

PREPARATIONS
Charging the Battery Pack
Before use the battery pack should be charged using the pro-
vided AC Adapter.
* Be sure to pull the DC cable out of the AC adapter when
you charge the battery.
1.
Plug the AC cable of the AC Adapter into an AC outlet.
The POWER lamp illuminates.
2.
While pushing the battery pack down, slide it in the direc-
tion of the arrow to mount it on the AC Adapter. Charging
starts, and the CHARGE lamp blinks green. It changes to
light steadily when charging is completed.
3.
When charging is completed, remove the battery pack by
sliding it in the opposite direction of the mounting direc-
tion.
Attaching the Battery Pack on the GY-
HD110
If the DC cable is connected to the GY-HD110, unplug the
cable.
1.
Hold the battery pack with the connector side facing the
GY-HD110.
2.
While pressing the battery pack against the GY-HD110,
slide it downward to attach it to the GY-HD110.
Detaching the Battery Pack from the GY-
HD110
Ensure that the POWER switch on the GY-HD110 is set to
OFF.
1.
While sliding the battery pack lock release lever, slide the
battery pack upward to remove it.
CAUTION
Do not detach the battery pack while recording is taking
place.
MEMO
• Do not connect or disconnect the DC cable while operat-
ing with a battery pack.
The following symptoms may occur if the DC cable is
connected or disconnected while operating with a battery
pack.
• The power is cut off for a moment when the DC cable is
disconnected.
• Noise to the video and audio signals occurs. Audio sig-
nal are muted.
• When operation is continued with DC input after the bat-
tery pack capacity has been used up, set the POWER
switch to OFF after the DC power is applied. Then switch
ON again.
• If the GY-HD110 is left with the battery pack attached, a
small amount of power is consumed even if the POWER
switch on the GY-HD110 is set to OFF.
Remove the battery pack when the GY-HD110 is not
going to be used.
